Retired US Air Force Major General William Neil McCasland remains at the center of an ongoing mystery after his disappearance in New Mexico. A newly released photograph shows McCasland leaving a sporting goods store in Albuquerque on February 27, the same day he vanished from his home.
The image, released by the Bernalillo County Sheriff’s Office, shows the retired officer appearing calm and composed while carrying a large white shopping bag and another smaller item under his arm.
Mccasland's disappearance has sparked online speculation, with some suggesting he may have had access to classified military and UFO-related information during his Air Force career.
His wife, Susan Wilkerson, told investigators that he left home without his phone, wallet, wearable devices, or prescription sunglasses, and claimed he had 'planned not to be found.'
Questions have been raised over McCasland's final movements, with some speculating that the items he carried may have been collected through a pre-arranged pickup order rather than purchased during the visit.
The case has gained attention after claims emerged linking McCasland to sensitive aerospace and military research programs, with some alleging he had ties to Air Force Research Laboratory projects and referenced his name appearing in 'UFO documents' expected to be released publicly.
